No. More people = always good is not true. Anyone who simply wants everyone in here I guess wants to see the content become facebook-level of quality?
More people isn't always good. But imagine some organizations and journalists that for whatever reason still are on Twitter can now be persuaded to sign up to Threads. Well, now they're in the fediverse.
And if the content from Threads is overwhelmingly bad we can always defederate and the fediverse still isn't destroyed.
So, how do I picture the extinguish part?
No, they're not. Threads has federation disabled. And might never enable it
Okay, if it'll never enable federation then all our discussions are obsolete!
